According to the latest Ericsson Mobility Report, 5G will account for 73 percent of all mobile subscriptions in the Gulf Council Cooperation (GCC) countries by the end of 2026. As a result, the value proposition for 5G and networks for the future has never been stronger. With the shift in perspective over the past 18 months in tandem with 5G networks going live at scale across the world including the Middle East, consumers have high expectations from this revoltionary technology to deliver better experiences of mobile services like voice and data.

Wojciech Bajda, Vice President and Head of Gulf Council Countries at Ericsson Middle East and Africa says: ”In a world where limitless connectivity improves lives, redefines business and pioneers a sustainable future, a whole new set of opportunities have opened up for enterprises to redefine and grow their business and for governments to enhance and improve services, and societies at large. In parallel, consumers expect 5G to act as a main catalyst in evolving new mobile services in areas like entertainment, gaming and education. This in return means that 5G represents a great potential for service providers to create and capture new value in the consumer business. Ultimately, GITEX GLOBAL 2021 is an exceptional platform to propel these visions across the Middle East region and we look forward to leverage this platform to showcase our Imagine Possible vision and to bring the ambitions of the entire ICT industry to life.”
